From the episode
Samajay Pirine on his 28 rushes has a pretty absurd 57% success rate on those runs went out of shotgun. Chase Brown on 53 rushes is at 28%... Brown's target share on early downs jumps to almost 17%... He sees a target on almost 24% of his routes run.
STACKED’s take
Brown's rushing splits worsen in shotgun; Pirine outperforms but Brown retains pass-catching value.
Chase Brown's rushing effectiveness has declined significantly in shotgun formations; on 53 early-down rushes out of shotgun with Joe Burrow on field in neutral game scripts (within 7 points), Brown posted a 28% success rate compared to Samajay Pirine's 57% on 28 rushes. Cincinnati has reverted to shotgun-heavy play (86% over last two weeks vs. 70% weeks 1-3), which favors Pirine as a runner. However, Brown remains a reliable pass-catcher out of shotgun with a 16.8% target share and 23.8% route target rate on early downs out of shotgun, versus 7.7% target share and 11% route target rate under center. JJ Zachariason expects Brown's ground workload to decline but projects continued receiving involvement.
